Course Curriculum Overview

4.5

French is a global language and has lots of job prospects. This very fact attracted my attention to this course. Every class has around 30-35 students. Teachers are always available to help in academic as well as nonacademic fields. All the professors have Ph.D., mostly from JNU. Apart from them, Ph.D. scholars from the center also take some classes. All the professors are very cool. They don't just help and support in academic fields but also help us in our overall development. They provide support and guidance. Before every semester, a calendar is issued, and the semester runs as per it. Exams are held accordingly.

Placement Experience

JNU has enough scope for placement however most students often opt for research rather than getting an early job. Placement-related info has been mentioned earlier. I am planning to do a master's in sociology from jnu itself because lately, the subject has been exciting me.

Fees and Financial Aid

The fee structure policy is good. Semester registration fee is around? 200. Hostel registration fee is around? 1500. And apart from it, the mess charge per month is around? 3000. College also provides MCM scholarships to students (?2000 per month in the academic calendar). Also, students often do part-time jobs while in college. After the course is completed, many students opt to study abroad and some even get jobs in their respective countries as per their languages. Also, MNCs like Amazon and Flipkart often hire students from JNU.

Campus Life

4

In my college, various cultural fest goes on across the year. Lok beyond folk to mosaic and so on. Recently the campus hosted an international food festival. Norteast cultural program, tribal fest, and so on. Apart from this every Centre, as well as every hostel, gives freshers to the newly admitted students. These have DJ night at the end which is memorizing. 9 floored library hosts so many many many books that one can read all through his life. All 9 floor has millions of books. Also, there's a study hall for students.

Hostel Facilities

4

The hostel facility is okay. Most of the hostels are old and are undergoing renovations. Mess food is healthy and good in quality as well as quantity. Registration is done on a semester basis and the process is smooth. All the students are provided with hostels however rooms can be rented in munirka.

Admission

After my 12th board exams, I applied to some colleges (the University of Delhi and Jawahar Lal Nehru University). The University of Delhi offered a variety of courses but gave admission based on board exams. I scored 92.2% on my boards and was getting into many colleges, but I opted for JNU which gave admission based on JNUEE (entrance exam held by JNU, now under CUET). In my, College Reservation is given based on central government rules. Apart from the normal reservation, JNU provides 6 marks for students from backward districts across India. The admission process is largely flexible and smooth. Seniors and student organizations are quite helpful while the admission process and throughout college life. I would surely recommend JNU to all the students.

Placement Experience:

The placement opportunities are mainly for commerce stream departments but the humanities stream also are offered internship from the government ministries such as ministry of culture and Home ministry. There are many private companies that come to offer placements. The students from 3rd year in particular apply for internships. The highest package iffered is 500000 and the average is 250000. About 45% students get placements. My plan after getting the degree is to go for higher studies.

As a future law student philosophy was one of the options which was good to opt. Secondly, comparatively less people opt it and it can be one of the better choices if you are preparing for upsc and taking it as an optional. Teaching can be made more interactive as the topics are really interesting

Remarks:

Positive : the faculties are good and I could say our college is the meeting place of various cultures ranging from Kerala to jammukashmir Negative: the infrastructure is poor. Labs and libraries are not so good. And there are stray dogs who often steps into classes and make us afraid. College is not fully air conditioned but is on processing.
